This is better than an action B movie or a soap opera. http://www.ajc.com/news/police-pilot-tried-to-194150.html Having the testicular fortitude to ask the cops to send a fuel truck to top you off on the active while being surrounded by the police after allegedly trying to run-over them with your 1937 DC-3…priceless. There has to be some Hollywood producer out there that would want to tell this mavericks’ story on celluloid. Maybe the same one that auditioned the L-39 fly-bys over the Santa Monica pier.
For the inquiring minds a couple of more urls to this misadventure of an intrepid DC-3 driver. http://www.ajc.com/news/delta-suspends-jailed-pilot-195178.html and http://www.ajc.com/news/delta-suspends-jailed-pilot-195178.html?cxntlid=daylf_artr Must have been a slow news day for the ATL Journal Constitution on the 11th.

Jailed Delta pilot suspended
Man accused of trying to run over Griffin police with his private plane.
By Megan Matteucci
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Friday, November 13, 2009
Delta Air Lines has suspended a pilot while officials investigate charges he tried to run over two Griffin police officers with his private plane.
Dan Wayne Gryder, 48, remains in the Spalding County jail, charged with two counts of aggravated assault and obstruction. He is being held without bond and is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, the sheriff’s office said.
Gryder, a Delta pilot and private aircraft instructor, was arrested Wednesday at the Griffin-Spalding Airport.
�He is suspended pending the completion into the investigation in this incident,†Delta spokesman Anthony Black said Thursday.
Griffin code enforcement officers were called to the airport Wednesday on a report of a pilot disrupting the airport. Gryder was driving his car across the runway and taxiway, Griffin Police Investigator Bryan Clanton said.
Police said the suspect gave two officers a fake name. After learning the pilot was Gryder, the officers tried to issue citations, police said.
Gryder refused to sign the tickets and boarded his plane, a 1937 DC-3A, police said. He started the engine and told one officer that if she moved, he would strike her car, police said.
The officer, who was standing next to the plane, moved out of the way and summoned backup.
More Griffin officers and Spalding County deputies flooded the area and ordered him to stop, but Gryder continued to taxi down the runway, police said.
Gryder got to the end of the runway and tried to take off, but he was out of gas. Police arrested Gryder and took him to jail.
Gryder’s actions disrupted air traffic, prohibiting flights from departing or arriving, police said.
â€?He essentially shut the airport down for almost 45 minutes,†Clanton said. â€?His actions created a danger for all of our officers, himself and others who lawfully use the airport.â€
